What is the easiest way to check for internet connection in C#?

Hi!
I searched a lot but I didn't get my answer. I'm looking for the easiest way to check for internet connection. Can you help me?
Thanks a lot.

Hi Pouya Ebrahimzadeh,
I suggest you could connect a site to check if it can be opened.
Public Shared Function CheckForInternetConnection() As Boolean
Try
Using client = New WebClient()
Using stream = client.OpenRead("https://msdn.microsoft.com/")
Return True
End Using
End Using
Catch
Return False
End Try
End Function
If you have any other concern regarding this issue, please feel free to let me know.
Best regards,
Youjun Tang

  • HT1338 My Mac Book Pro is currently runnng OS X v10.5.8. When I check for updates by clicking the apple icon it tells me that my computer is up to date.  What is the easiest way to upgrade to OS X Lion?  Do I need to get OS X Snow Leopard first?

    My Mac Book Pro is currently runnng OS X v10.5.8. When I check for updates by clicking the apple icon it tells me that my computer is up to date.  What is the easiest way to upgrade to OS X Lion?  Do I need to get OS X Snow Leopard first?

    Yes, there's been no updates to 10.5.8 for quite awhile, next is paid Upgrades.
    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    General requirements
       * Mac computer with an Intel processor
        * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least)
        * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
        * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
    http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
    It looks like they might still have it...
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDAzOA
    If it's a core Duo & not a Core2Duo, then it'll only run in 32 bit mode.
    Lion/101.7 System requirements
        •    x86-64 processor (Macs with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Intel Core i3, Intel Core i5, Intel Core i7, or Xeon processor.)
        •    At least 2GB of memory, I say 6 GB
        •    Latest version of Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8), with the Mac App Store installed
        •    At least 4GB of disk space for downloading, I say 50 GB.
    Like Snow Leopard, Lion does not support PowerPC-based Macs (e.g., Power Macs, PowerBooks, iBooks, iMacs (G3-G5), eMacs).
    Lion also does not support 32-bit Intel Core Duo or Core Solo based Macs. Rosetta is no longer available in Lion, which means Lion no longer supports PowerPC applications.

  • Using RH10 - what's the easiest way to create and save HTML code as a snippet for later re-use?

    I am using RH10 to maintain and update several WebHelp projects for customer-facing Internet applications. I am noticing inconsistencies in css and html so I would like to create several snippets for later re-use.  My wishlist, so far:  FAQ page with internal bookmarks, product image with table of callouts, and basic page template with corporate header and footer. What's the easiest way to save / export a page that I want to use later as a snippet? Thank you.

    Have you thought about using the Resource Manager?

  • I have a new iMac. I have set up a user page for myself, for my wife and an administrator page. My question is my wife needs files from my user page transferred to her page. What's the easiest way?

    I have a new iMac. I have set up a user page for myself, for my wife and an administrator page. My question is my wife needs files from my user page transferred to her page. What's the easiest way?

    I've done this by dragging files from my user page to her drop box. In Finder, drag the required files and hover over the hard disc icon in the navigation bar on the left. As you hover, it will open another finder window showing the contents. Work your way down these windows into <Her username | Public | Dropbox>. Drop the files into the dropbox. She can then retrieve them from her user page.
    Good luck,

  • What is the easiest way to convert .MTS files for use in Final Cut Express

    I initially downloaded my Sony Alpha7 files into iMovie. As the production requires a little more professional software I then tried to import files into Final Cut Express. As these are now .MTS files what is the easiest way of converting them?

    Hey Martin et al,
    Related question...
    After you convert files from M2TS or MP4 into something usable in FCE can you trash the original M2ts/mp4 files ?
    I recently used Mpeg Streamclip to convert Mp4 into AIC for FCE for example..
    Is there a general rule of when you have to save original files so everything works in FCE?
    I'm running out of HD space.

  • What is the easiest way to create alias email addresses in exchange 2013?

    For example my official domain is [email protected]
    Within my company i want to make it look like certain departments are sending from bicycles.com skateboards.com
    and skooters.com and receive to those addresses even though the emails are really going through the
    [email protected] domain. but it appears to be coming from three other domains.
    appearance is everything. What is the easiest way to accomplish this.
    Step by step with examples if possible. I am not well versed in exchange server 2013 yet.
    Droid Hacker

    In Exchange 2013 you can use the ECP to add additional email addresses to mailboxes. In order for a mailbox to send using an address, that address needs to be set as the reply address. One mailbox cannot send as multiple addresses. Doing that would require
    a mailbox for each address. To set a new primary address on a mailbox log into the ECP and choose mailboxes under the recipients option on the left. Then search for the mailbox you want to add the address to and click the edit symbol. Navigate to the
    Email Address tab on the left. To set a new primary address you will likely need uncheck the box for "Automatically update email addresses based on the email address policy applied to this recipient". Then click the plus button, enter the new address,
    and check the box for "Make this the reply address"
    Before you do this you should ensure that the proper MS records exist for these other domains, and that they are properly configured for mail flow. Once you set this as the reply address for a mailbox, that is the address external users will use for replies.

  • What's the easiest way to cut out about 20 seconds (in the middle) of a minute+ vid that i made on and downloaded from my iPhone 6

    Hi - I'm a vid beginner, actually have a training session tomorrow at an App Store, but for now...what's the easiest way to cut out about 20 seconds (in the middle) of a minute plus vid that i made on and downloaded from my iPhone 6? I I'mported the clip to iPhoto on my new Macbook pro. The TRIM function in iPhoto seems only to want to let me cut from either end. I guess if I do cut out a section in the middle, maybe 'glueing' the sections back together is too much for iPhoto to handle (?). I spent about 10 minutes just trying to (unsuccessfully) import to iMovie, so that aint working either. Quicktime maybe? Thx for reading

    Hey jabXhook,
    Thanks for the question. You may have already received your answer from the Apple Store yesterday, but iMovie is definitely the way to go if you want to trim or split clips. Check out the following resource:
    Trim, split, and move clips - iMovie Help
    http://help.apple.com/imovie/mac/10.0.6/#/movf8b8fc9b2
    Trim unwanted frames from a clip
    1. In the timeline, select the range of frames you want to keep in the clip.
    2. Control-click the clip, and choose Trim Selection from the shortcut menu.
    The clip is trimmed to the boundaries of the selection.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • What is the easiest way to convert a jpeg into a watermark with CC 2014?

    What is the easiest way to convert a jpeg into a watermark with CC 2014?
    I signed a paper and uploaded the image to the computer as a jpeg to be turned into a watermark.  I'd done it before for a different kind of photography, but have not done it in so long that I cannot remember the steps nor can I find the tutorial video I had watched that taught me how to do it.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Adding to what others have said, if you want to repeat the watermark across the image, it's relatively easy:
    As JJ said, you want to create an image with a transparent background. You can even use his script. Once you've done all that, click Image > Trim with the "transparent pixels" option and leave all the "trim away" options checked.
    Click Edit > Define Pattern to name the pattern.
    Open the image you want to apply the watermark to. Create a new blank layer. (ON EDIT: Select the blank layer.)
    Click Edit > Fill and use the Pattern option under Contents. Choose the pattern you made earlier. Click OK.
    At this point, you can leave it as is or use blending modes and layer opacity to taste. Example:
